New trend on the block!

It’s official: Colour is summer’s biggest trend. And, it is here to stay.
From neon pink to cobalt blue and from bold strokes to subtle hues every colour
is playing up its part in creating history.

Now, colours from different families are popularising an exciting
trend called ‘Colour Blocking’. Started a year ago, this trend is all about
creating a fun, vivacious experience. The best way to wear carry the colour
blocking trend is with oodles of confidence.

What’s colour blocking? As the name suggests it literally means an
outfit made up of block of colours. That’s right! The best way to wear it is by choosing colours that are direct opposite on the
colour chart or colour wheel. For instance try mixing pink and yellow or orange
and blue or green and black to get the right look.

We at JADE chose green and dark blue to give our saree a new-age
twist. And, to glorify its look we teamed it with a beautiful ornate blouse.
Now, who can stop you from being the showstopper?! So, spin your way into the world of fashion.

Before you go, here’s a quick
list of dos and don’ts:

Do: Choose colours that have the same level of intensity. For
instance, teaming up a bright pink with a dull blue, is a complete no-no!

DON'T: As a thumb rule stick to plain fabric. Don’t add prints or
stripes or florals or any other patterns. You don’t want to compete
with a circus clown, do you?

DO: Keep the look simple. This means stick to metallic or black
accessories.

DON'T: Never team the outfit with bags and shoes of the same
colour. You are not here to co-ordinate things… you are here to have fun!
